Our hospital is fortunate to have many international
exchange opportunities through veterinary science and medicine. Gen Kato D.V.M,
Director of Daktari Animal Hospital and affiliate professor of Colorado State
University (CSU), established an exchange (internship) program with CSU to have
a senior student (graduating grade at veterinary school) practice with us for 4
weeks. Their stay in return provide us good opportunities to learn the most
advanced veterinary medicine available in the United State and has been a good
influence on all of our staff. The international exchange goes beyond
veterinary science. Students have enjoyed learning about Japanese culture
through activities such as sight seeing, hot-spring outings, Japanese cuisine
and sake.
We also provide continuous education for our staff.
Seminars and veterinary meetings in Japan as well as those in the United States offer valuable opportunities for our staff to expand their knowledge and
advance their techniques. Some of seminars and veterinary meetings our staff
attend in the United States are ones of the American Animal Hospital
Association (AAHA), International Veterinary Emergency Care Society (IVECS),
the American College of Veterinary Surgery (ACVS), the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM). Veterinary technicians as well as
veterinarians attend the veterinary meeting in Hawaii each fall where they meet
and interact with veterinarians from Hawaii and specialists from various fields
who come to lecture from the mainland.
Dr. Gen Kato maintains and expands his relationships with
veterinary colleagues in the United States through his lectures at Colorado State University and other institutes that he presents after attending meetings in the
U.S. Many of international specialists who provide us educational seminars
and visit our hospital are also Dr. Kato’s professional associates. These
seminars and meetings are precious opportunities for our staff to have
face-to-face discussions on the most recent veterinary science and medicine
developments.
